open_eGo: open electricity Grid optimization

Planning Tool - to determine the optimal network and storage development in Germany - integrated into an OpenEnergy-Platform

Development of a holistic grid planning tool as an integral part of an open energy modelling platform aiming
at the determination of an optimal grid and storage expansion in Germany.

The project open_ego aims at developing a transparent, inter-grid-level operating grid planning tool to
investigate economically viable grid expansion scenarios, considering alternative flexibility options such as
storages or redispatch. The tool is developed on a public virtual research
platform which is developed in context of this project as well. This research platform is intended to serve stakeholders
as a component of participation in the process of the Energy Transition.
